Update: Chikungunya in America

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) there have been only two locally transmitted cases of
chikungunya in Florida.

As of July 29, 2014, there were about 398
travel-associated cases diagnosed in the U.S. The CDC has
issued travel notices for countries in the Caribbean where the
virus is more widespread.

Symptoms of chikungunya
include fever, muscle pain and joint pain. There is no vaccine or
cure, and the virus is rarely fatal. Homeowners should use mosquito
prevention measures such as wearing long-sleeved shirts and insect
repellent to avoid contracting the virus.
